Conclusion on classification
According to Article 13 of Regulation (EC) No. 1907/2006 "General Requirements for Generation of Information on Intrinsic Properties of substances", information on intrinsic properties of substances may be generated by means other than tests e.g. from information from structurally related substances (grouping or read-across), provided that conditions set out in Annex XI are met.
Annex XI, "General rules for adaptation of this standard testing regime set out in Annexes VII to X” states that “substances whose physicochemical, toxicological and ecotoxicological properties are likely to be similar or follow a regular pattern as a result of structural similarity may be considered as a group, or ‘category’ of substances. This avoids the need to test every substance for every endpoint”.
Since the group concept is applied to the members of the Glycerides category, data will be generated from a representative category member to avoid unnecessary animal testing. Additionally, once the group concept is applied, substances will be classified and labelled on this basis.
Classification related key information
Biodegradation in water: screening tests: 92.7% in 28 days (ISO 10708).
Bioaccumulation: No significant bioaccumulation in biota is expected for this substance (see IUCLID section 5.3).
Acute toxicity:
Fish:
LC50 (48 h) (Danio rerio): no effects up to the limit of water solubility (ISO 7346-1).
Aquatic invertebrates:
EC50 (48 h) (Daphnia magna): no effects up to the limit of water solubility (read-across, EU C.2).
Algae:
EC50 (72 h) (Scenedesmus subspicatus): no effects up to the limit of water solubility (EU C.3).
Chronic toxicity:
Algae:
NOEC (72 h) (Scenedesmus subspicatus): no effects up to the limit of water solubility (EU C.3).
Non-classification justification according to CLP
Based on the data above, Octanoic acid, monoester with 1,2,3-propanetriol is considered to be rapidly degradable and have low potential for bioaccumulation. The acute L(E)C50 values reported for fish, aquatic invertebrates and algae show no effects up to the limit of water solubility. Therefore
Octanoic acid, monoester with 1,2,3-propanetriol does not need to be classified and labelled as acute aquatic hazard according to the 2nd ATP of Regulation (EC) No.1272/2008 (CLP).
Valid chronic toxicity data are available, with NOEC values (aquatic invertebrates and algae) showing no effect up to the limit of water solubility. Thus Octanoic acid, monoester with 1,2,3-propanetriol does not need to be classified and labelled as long-term aquatic hazard according to the 2nd ATP of Regulation (EC) No.1272/2008 (CLP).
Non-classification justification according to DSD
Based on the data above
Octanoic acid, monoester with 1,2,3-propanetriol is considered to be rapidly degradable and have low potential for bioaccumulation. The acute L(E)C50 values reported for fish, aquatic invertebrates and algae show no effects up to the limit of water solubility. Considering this information Octanoic acid, monoester with 1,2,3-propanetriol does not need to be classified and labeled as environmental hazard according to Directive 67/548/EEC.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
